The Minnesota Department of Transportation has prepared this Minnesota Bikeways
Map as a convenient guide to help bicyclists
select their routes.
The riding conditions on the map require
knowledge of the rules and regulations for
operating a vehicle safely along public
roadways.
The rating terms (good, fair, poor, unsatisfactory) given to the roadway evaluation
color-code denote the relationship between
the characteristics of the bicycle driving
area (or roadway design) to the average
daily motorized traffic. The evaluation also
takes into account the number and types

of accidents which have occurred. The information shown is the most current available and may not, in all cases, reflect the
status of the roadway environment.
Other non-color coded roadways will be
evaluated and the Minnesota Bikeways maps
will be updated as information becomes
available. Gravel and other non-paved
roads are not evaluated (and are not color-
coded) because their surfaces are not conducive to extensive bicycle travel.
Controlled-access roads are color-coded for
identification purposes only and have not
been evaluated because bicycle usage is
prohibited.

Appleton City Hall, 25 South Miles Street, Appleton: this 1895 Richardsonian
two story brick and granite building has a three story tower, arched doorways
and stone capped gables.
Camp Release State Monument, State Highway 212 west of Montevideo:
travelers can rest or picnic and remember the past as they read the monument's
description of the site where Dakota (Sioux) released 269 white captives following the end of the tragic Sioux Uprising.
Chippewa City Pioneer Village, State Highways 7 and 59, Montevideo: arranged around a square similar to those once found in towns throughout
Chippewa County, the village includes an 1882 church, an old school house,
an 1870 pioneer log cabin, a trading post, blacksmith shop, general store and
others.
Chippewa County Bank, North First Street and Lincoln Avenue, Montevideo:
this building, built in 1900 in the Romanesque Revival style, is one of the only
remaining buildings here to retain its original design."
Lac Qui Parle County Historical Center, State Highway 75 adjoining Jacobson
Wayside Park, Madison: the center includes a country school, a log cabin, and
an agrarian museum with many pioneer implements and horse drawn vehicles.
Visitors can also view photographs of early settlers and can read accounts in
the center's library of pioneer life.
Lac Qui Parle Mission Historic District, off Chippewa County road 13: in
1835 Dr. Thomas S. Williamson and a small group arrived at this site to establish a chapel and a mission school. In 1854 the mission was abandoned and
fell to ruin but the chapel has since been rebuilt, and markers indicate the
locations of other buildings.
10-D John G. Lund House, 101 Fourth Street West, Canby: Lund, a real estate
speculator, local politician and banker, extensively added to his modest frame
house in 1900, transforming it into a large, ornate Queen Anne style dwelling.
The Museum Encompassing Canby Community Area (MECCA) has preserved
the house with household artifacts and period furnishings.
Swensson Farm, off Chippewa County Road 6, northwest of Granite Falls:
this twenty-two room brick veneer mansion was completed in 1903 by Norwegian immigrant Olaf Swensson. Today the Chippewa County Historical
Society operates the farmstead as a museum, displaying household artifacts of
the Swensson family.
Swift County Courthouse, Idaho Avenue and Fourteenth Street, Benson: this
building was constructed in 1897 to house Swift county offices. The design
demonstrates a strong Richardsonian Romanesque influence.
Upper Sioux Agency, State Highway 67 south of Granite Falls: the Upper and
Lower Sioux Agencies were established as administrative centers for the Dakota
reservations along the Minnesota River. The Sioux Uprising in 1862 forced the
closing of the agency, but the Historical Society has restored the brick employee's duplex to its 1862 appearance, and operates an interpretive center
which describes life at the agency.
Andrew Volstead House, 163 Ninth Street, Granite Falls: Volstead is most
remembered as the "father of Prohibition" for the Volstead Act which he
drafted as enforcement legislation for the 18th Amendment. Volstead's 1878
two story frame home has now been restored and is open to the public for
tours.
